There are helicopters making water drops and one borite bomber is dropping retardent. Authorities have closed 101-South (heading to S.F.). Adding to the mess is an accident between a Park Service Truck and a Mercedes. Traffic is blocked at the inter-section. Marin City has only one way in and one way out.

Park the car in the garage if available, driveway if not, pointed out towards the street. Put the go bag in the car. At first word, get in the car and be out of there, before everyone else hits the street and stops traffic dead.

For some reason, people think they can stop a fire that puts out a Hiroshima bomb's worth of energy every 25 minutes with their garden hose. They can't, and structure protection is best left to the trained firefighters with the 20,000 gallon water tanks and high-pressure hoses.

The fires were contained by 7:00 P.M. There was an alert last night from the Sheriff's Office for possible evaucations through at least Thursday, when rain is expected.

Gail and I will be leaving today (Wednesday) for a few days with eyes toward Reno or Carson City (friends in both places). Our cat will be going with us. She hates the carrier but we will not kennel her.

Air quality is the shits, I have to wear my "Achoo Mask" everytime I step outside. The mask costs maybe $80.00, but the choice is the mask or an Asthma Attack.

There is a new fire, in Boulder Creek (Santa Cruz County). Fires in and around Santa Rosa are becoming contained.
